Don Ritchie said it best, “Always remember the power of the simple smile, a helping hand, a listening ear, and a kind word.” My goal is to meet each of my clients where they’re at with their different and unique life challenges. By providing each client with a supportive and encouraging therapeutic relationship and all the tools needed, together we can create an environment that fosters growth and change for a healthier lifestyle. We all need someone in our corner and someone to listen whether we experience everyday challenges or catastrophic life events and I can provide you with exactly that.

As a leading Certified Sexual Addiction Therapist (CSAT) Ryan has been helping individuals overcome addiction since 2014.

He has helped many individuals and families find the healing and restoration they are seeking and is confident that he can help you find healing as well.

Everyone has struggles or hurdles presented in their lives that sometimes will require an objective opinion. I work collaboratively with people to look at issues from a different perspective. Reaching out to someone for the first time takes tremendous strength of character and courage. I am passionate about this work and it is an honor and pleasure to work with clients who are invested in making positive changes in their lives. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and private practitioner who has over 25 years of experience working with children, families, couples, and individuals in the Cheyenne area.

I am a trained therapist committed to working with others on their journey toward healing. If you are struggling with mental health, grief and loss, addiction, general phase of life stress, or relationships, please know that you are not alone. I would be honored to provide therapeutic support as you walk the road of healing.

Each one of us can sometimes feel like we're not good enough, inadequate, worthless, a failure, have to be perfect, and/or unlovable. These negative beliefs about ourselves can affect our thoughts, feelings, relationships, and behaviors. I find it important to address beliefs and process emotions that keep people stuck and experiencing symptoms such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and low self-esteem. My goal is to help you move through therapy effectively and efficiently, and create the long-lasting change you are seeking.

I am a Change Agent believing we as people possess limitless possibilities to have the lives and relationships we dream of if only we have the skills. Many times we possess the answers to our own questions and it just takes a new perspective to see them. I love to help others find the way to happiness. I believe the therapeutic relationship should be a team approach lead by the client. I would love the opportunity to explore your lives and relationships with you.

My ideal client would come to therapy ready to engage in the process. The process is not always fun, not quick or easy, but worth the journey in the end. Their issues would be addressed during the journey and goals met, along with an enlightened sense of self and purpose. They would want to get better for themselves but need the help and encouragement of another to guide them to where they have never been able to go before or sustain. They would be accepting of direct feedback and measurable goals to complete a treatment plan in an effective and expediated timetable.

New experiences can be uncomfortable and overwhelming at times, but also exciting and full of hope for the future. The change process provides an opportunity to learn new things and for growth. I look forward to supporting you as we navigate this journey together. You’re never too young or too old to make positive and lasting change.

Hello fellow traveler! This life is a journey and everyone’s path is uniquely their own. But one thing we all have in common is that as soon as we think we have our path perfectly planned, we find ourselves off balanced, nudged, even pushed in a different direction. Utilizing cultural sensitivity, empathy and the best evidence based practices, it is my goal to help you discover your inner strengths and resiliency so you can navigate the difficulties and challenges in life with grace and self assurance. Searching for someone to assist you was the first brave step toward transforming your life and blazing new trails.

Therapy is the experience of acceptance, directness and expert, practical knowledge to help us navigate changes and setbacks. Modern life and biology can trigger sadness, anxiety, panic, social phobia, eating/health issues, and unwanted behaviors. Some people experience sexual, emotional, psychological, spiritual and religious abuse. Abuse can feel like being controlled, brainwashed, indoctrinated and like being a psychological hostage. Addressing confusing situations and finding healing are part of the purposes of therapy.

As a counselor, I have experienced beautiful moments with my clients as they discover the roots of their struggles and begin to emerge as their true selves. I am skilled at forming deep, therapeutic relationships that promote positive change and growth.

My particular areas of interest lay in coming alongside families and couples by providing marriage-enrichment and communication skills. And specifically working with concerns of anxiety, depression, anger management and communication struggles. I find joy in helping people identify behaviors that negatively affect their lives and relationships with others. I work to bring an awareness to the other voices and instincts in our lives that tug at our hearts and help foster an ability to communicate with constructive and compelling reasonableness. ​

I enjoy working with adolescents, adults and couples. A sample of issues I am experienced in working with include but are not limited to: anxiety, relationships, self esteem, depression, eating disorders, trauma, grief and loss. I am certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy for trauma. I also work with pet loss. I am here to help others see their value, fulfill their authentic selves and live life as they see fit. I am also a DQCS for those in need of clinical supervision.

Do you ever get stuck in the “what if I would have done this instead of that?” or worrying so much about what will happen that it keeps you from living in the moment? These are common issues that keep people from unleashing the best versions of themselves. I strive to help clients embrace the beauty within and all around to create meaningful and mindful purpose as they experience each day.

Have you ever felt hopeless, anxious, or worried? Have you tried to get help and found it did not work? Then I am the therapist for you! I have years of experience. I especially enjoy helping families resolve conflict by figuring out what leads to it and working together. I am capable to do so, sometimes in as few as a couple sessions. I love working with young children. I have successfully used EMDR for stress and anxiety about health procedures.

I believe that there is good in all of us and even though it may seem lost at times, we just need a little help to rediscover that good and use it to help us through life.
